AN ABSTRACT FOR THE THESIS OF Rodney Duane Swanson for the Masters of

Science in Geology presented October 20, 1986

Title: A Stratigraphic-Geochemical Study of the Troutdale Formation

and Sandy River Mudstone in the Portland Basin and Lower Columbia

River Gorge.

APPROVED BY THE MEMBERS OF THE THESIS COMMITTEE:

Dr. Paul E. Hammond

Dr. Robert O. Van Atta

Hyaloclastic sediment forms an identifiable stratigraphic

interval within the Troutdale Formation that can be traced from the

Bridal Veil channel to the Portland basin. Hyaloclastic sediment

composed chiefly vitric sands is found interbedded with muds, sandy

muds and gravels penetrated by wells in northeast Portland are

correlated with the upper member of the Troutdale Formation. These

beds are characteristic of the informal upper member of the Troutdale

Formation in the Bridal Veil channel of the ancestral Columbia River

(Tolan and Beeson, 1984) and the type area of the Troutdale Formation

exposed along the Sandy River (Trimble, 1963). Fluvially deposited

hyaloclastic beds within the upper Troutdale Formation are interpreted

to be the result of interaction of Cascadian basaltic lavas with an

ancestral Columbia River (Tolan and Beeson, 1984; Trimble, 1963).

Glass clasts taken from well and outcrop samples have nearly identical

trace and minor element geochemical content as determined by

instrumental neutron activation analysis.

2

Based on similar major oxide geochemical content (Wise, 1969;

Tolan and Beeson, 1984), the upper member Troutdale Formation

hyaloclastic sediment is derived from Pliocene (5-2 m.y.b.p.) High

Cascades high-alumina basalts found between the Hood River Valley and

the Bull Run area. Trace and minor element data for High Cascade Group

basalts along the Washington side of the Columbia River area (Hammond

and Korosec, 1983) show a similarity between basalts near Underwood

Mountain and hyaloclastic separates. Vitric material from a gravel 100

meters below the main body of upper Troutdale Formation hyaloclastic

sediment is tentatively correlated with basalts of the Simcoe Volcanics

in south-central Washington based on major oxide content (James

Anderson, 1985 written communication). Age dates for the Simcoe

basalts range from 2(?)-7.5 m.y.b.p. (James Anderson, 1985 written

communication). The latest Pliocene and early Pleistocene Boring

Lavas, K-Ar age dated at 1.3 (Edwin H. McKee and Norman S. MacLeod,

1985 written communication) and 2.5 m.y.b.p. (Robert H. Duncan and

Norman S. MacLeod, 1985 written communication) that intrude and overlie

the Troutdale Formation in the Portland area are not source rocks for

Portland area Troutdale Formation hyaloclastites based on differing

trace and minor element concenatrations.

Page 4: A stratigraphic-geochemical study of the Troutdale ...

In the Portland basin hyaloclastic beds are interbedded with

intervals of non-hyaloclastic sediment. Upper Troutdale Formation

exposed in the lower Columbia River Gorge is dominated by hyaloclastic

sands and gravels. In the Portland Basin up to 900 feet of Troutdale

Formation basaltic gravel overlies the hyaloclastic interval which

defines the base of the upper Troutdale Formation.

Trace element contents of Sandy River Mudstone and lower

Troutdale Formation sediment are similar. Addition of High Cascades

lava-derived sediment to the upper Troutdale Formation is indicated by

higher Cr, Co, Fe and Sc concentratons. Q-F-L plots show a similarity

between the Sandy River Mudstone and the lower Troutdale Formation and

a higher amount of lithic material in upper Troutdale Formation

sediments in the well area. Modern lower Columbia River sediment

(Whetten and others, 1969) plots within the range of the upper and

lower Troutdale Formation in a Q-F-L Plot.

3

Formation of the Portland basin was in progress at the time of

Columbia River basalt deposition (Beeson and others, 1984).

Deformation probably continued through deposition of the post-Columbia

River basalt Pliocene sediment in the basin. Along the eastern margin

of the Portland Basin the Troutdale Formation appears to be gently

dipping toward the west. Locally however, upper Troutdale Formation

hyaloclastic sediment is off set approximately 150 metres downward from

Prune Hill, Washington to the Blue Lake area, two miles to the

southwest, on the on the Oregon bank of the Columbia River.

CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION

General and Purpose

Numerous geologic studies of the Portland and lower Columbia

River Gorge areas include examinations of the sediments included in the

Troutdale Formation and Sandy River Mudstone. The earliest studies

(Bretz, 1917; Williams, 1916; Hodge, 1938; Treasher, 1942) grouped the

current Troutdale Formation and Sandy River Mudstone together as post­

Columbia River basalt sediment. Later workers (Trimble, 1963;

Mundorff, 1964) divided the Troutdale Formation into two separate

stratigraphic units. The more widely recognized nomenclature is

Trimble's (1963) separation of the fine-grained lower portion of the

Troutdale Formation into the Sandy River Mudstone. The Troutdale

Formation and Sandy River Mudstone were still described as

stratigraphically undifferentiable masses of sediment, deposited by

some sort of ancestral Columbia River and local streams. Tolan and

Beeson (1984) further refined the stratigraphy of the Troutdale

Formation in the lower Columbia River Gorge by defining upper and lower

members of an ancestral Columbia River facies. Their informal upper

and lower members are based on the upward transition from deposits of

non-locally-derived gravels of the Columbia River drainage to sediment

dominated by hyaloclastic debris and basalt cobbles derived from High

Cascades lavas.

This study examines the hyaloclastic sediment that is in part

definitive of Tolan and Beeson's (1984) upper member Troutdale

Formation. Sediment included in the lower member of the Troutdale

Formation and the Sandy River Mudstone is examined in order to further

define the statigraphic relationships within these units in the

Portland area. Fluvial hyaloclastites, also referred to as vitric

sands (Trimble, 1963), in the upper member of the Troutdale Formation

are studied as potential stratigraphic marker beds based on minor and

trace element content and lithology. Basaltic glass (sideromelane)

clasts from hyaloclastites are analyzed in an attempt to correlate them

with possible Cascadian eruptive sources.

Within the City of Portland the Troutdale Formation hyaloclastic

sediment is found in wells drilled for the Portland Water Bureau

(Willis, 1977; Hoffstetter, 1984). Well cuttings, lithologic logs, and

geophysical logs used in this study are from wells drilled by the

Portland Water Bureau Exploratory Well Project (Willis, 1977). The

deepest and most widely distributed wells were drilled for the Portland

Water Bureau as a part of the Exploratory Well Project (Figure 1).

Selected cuttings from five of these wells were sampled, examined and

analyzed. Stratigraphic sections were measured and sampled near the

type area of the Troutdale Formation and Sandy River Mudstone along

the Sandy River (Hodge, 1938, Trimble, 1963). The reference section

for the upper and lower members of the Troutdale Formation at Bridal

Veil, Oregon (Tolan and Beeson, 1984) was also measured and sampled.

Figure 2 shows locations of samples and measured sections.

the lava flows of the middle Miocene Columbia River Basalt Group in

western Oregon based on their stratigraphic position overlying the

Columbia River basalts in the lower Columbia River Gorge (Tolan and

Beeson, 1984; Hodge, 1938) and in the Portland basin (Trimble, 1963).

The Columbia River Basalt Group overlies the upper Eocene to Miocene

Skamania Volcanics and the Oligocene to lower Miocene Eagle Creek

Formation east of Portland in the lower Columbia River Gorge. West of

the Portland area, middle Miocene Scappoose Formation and older Eocene,

Oligocene and lower Miocene marine sediments of the Yamhill Formation,

Cowlitz Formation, Keasey Formation and Pittsburg Bluff Formation along

with the Eocene basalts of the Tillamook Volcanics predate the Columbia

River basalt (Newton, 1969; Hammond, 1979; Kadri, 1982; Van Atta and

Kelty, 1985). In the Cascade Range west of Mount Hood, the middle to

upper Miocene Rhododendron Formation interf ingers with and overlies

flows of the Columbia River Basalt Group (Priest and others, 1982).

The Sandy River Mudstone and Troutdale Formation overlie mudflows of

the Rhododendron Formation in the valleys of the Sandy River and

Clackamas River (Allen, 1932; Trimble, 1963; Peck and others, 1964).

Figure 3 depicts the general Cenozoic stratigraphy in the Portland area

and lower Columbia River Gorge.

The Troutdale Formation was named by Hodge (1938) for thick beds

of gravels and sands exposed as cliffs along the Sandy River near the

town of Troutdale, Oregon. Here, the Troutdale Formation is composed

of coarse, fluvially-deposited hyaloclastites, quartzite-bearing

gravels, lenses of micaceous arkose, and lithic sands (Trimble, 1963).

Trimble (1963) determined that the hyaloclastites are composed of

sideromelane (basaltic glass) sand based on refractive index and

attributed their formation to the interaction of basalt flows and a

river flowing through the Cascades. Figure 4 is a generalized

stratigraphic section for the type locality of the Troutdale Formation

along the Sandy River taken from Trimble (1963). Trimble (1963) noted

that beneath the gravels are beds of mud and sandy mud, possibly of

lacustrine origin, and renamed this portion of Hodge's Troutdale

Formation the Sandy River Mudstone. The Sandy River Mudstone and

Troutdale Formation extend westward into the Portland Basin where they

are presumed to overlie Columbia River basalt based on a driller's log

from the Ladd well near NE 39th and Glisan (circa 1885) and other wells

drilled near the margins of the basin (Trimble, 1963).

Fossil flora found in the Sandy River Mudstone near the

transition from the Sandy River Mudstone to the Troutdale Formation in

the Sandy River area establish an age of early Pliocene (Chaney, 1944

in Trimble, 1963 p.35). In the Portland area upper Pliocene to lower

Pleistocene Boring Lavas intrude and overlie the Troutdale Formation

unconformably (Treasher, 1942; Trimble, 1963; Beeson and Nelson, 1978).

A potassium-argon age date of 1.3 m.y.b.p. has been determined for

Boring Lavas from Rocky Butte in northeast Portland (Edwin McKee and

Norman Macleod, 1985 unpublished date, written communication). A

somewhat older age of 2.6 m.y.b.p. is found for Boring Lavas of the

Oregon City plateau (Robert Duncan and Norman MacLeod, 1985 unpublished

potassium-argon age date, written communication).

(approximately 1000 feet) section of Troutdale Formation gravels, sands

and coarse conglomerates near the town of Bridal Veil, Oregon to be

paleochannel sediment filling a canyon cut into the Columbia River

basalts by an ancestral Columbia River. This was named the Bridal Veil

channel (Figure 2). Tolan and Beeson (1984) divided the Bridal Veil

channel section of the Troutdale Formation into informal upper and

lower members based on the stratigraphic succession of two distinct

lithologic facies: A lower member characterized by quartzite-bearing

basaltic gravel and micaceous arkoses, and an upper member

characterized by fluvially deposited hyaloclastite, lithic sand,

basaltic gravel, and conglomerate (Figure 5).

The presence of quartzite and other non-Cascadian clasts in the

Troutdale Formation gravels has led several authors (Williams, 1916;

Lowry and Baldwin, 1952; Trimble, 1963) to speculate that at least part

of the sediment contributed to the Troutdale Formation is derived from

rocks outside the northwest Oregon region. Tolan and Beeson (1984)

interpreted that their lower member of the Troutdale Formation was

deposited by an ancestral Columbia River which was in existence since

at least the late middle Miocene. Although other gravels included in

the Troutdale Formation have been found as interbeds and channel fills

within the Columbia River basalts in the lower Columbia River Gorge and

western Oregon, no other gravels appear to be as thick or widespread as

the post-Columbia River Basalt Group Troutdale Formation (Anderson,

1978, 1980; Beeson and others, 1985).

The transition from the lower member to the upper member of the

Troutdale Formation is interpreted to b~ the result of the onset of

Page 23: A stratigraphic-geochemical study of the Troutdale ...

High Cascade high-alumina basaltic volcanism and its interaction with

the ancestral Columbia River (Tolan and Beeson, 1984). Hyaloclastic

debris formed when the lavas flowed into the ancestral Columbia River.

Fluvial deposits of this hyaloclastic debris, along with High Cascade

basalt cobbles, characterize the sedimentary rocks of the upper member

of the Troutdale Formation (Tolan and Beeson, 1984). Chemical analysis

of sediments of the upper member of the Troutdale Formation in this

study shows that much of this material is derived from high-alumina

basalts of the High Cascades.

Filling of the Bridal Veil canyon with hyaloclastites, basaltic

gravels and conglomerates allowed the ancestral Columbia River to move

laterally and deposit sediment over a wider area. The Bridal Veil

section is capped by high-alumina basalts of the High Cascades (Tolan

and Beeson, 1984). These basalts are correlative with the Boring Lavas

of the Portland area (Allen, 1975; Peck and others, 1964; Wise, 1969;

Priest, 1982) and have been grouped together with the Boring Lavas of

the Portland area based on major oxide geochemistry (Tolan and Beeson,

1984).

Some time constraints have been placed on the deposition of the

Troutdale Formation in the Bridal Veil channel. The sediment in the

channel is assumed to be younger than 12 m.y.b.p. because the Troutdale

Formation fills a canyon cut into the 12 m.y. old Pomona Member of the

Saddle Mountains Basalt, Columbia River Basalt Group (Tolan and Beeson,

1984). Two laharic mudflows are interbedded within the lower member of

the Troutdale Formation approximately 300 feet to 450 feet below the

lowest exposure of upper member sediment. These lahars were correlated

Page 24: A stratigraphic-geochemical study of the Troutdale ...

11

with the Rhododendron Formation. Lahar clasts were found to be

geochemically similar to a microdiorite that intrudes the lower

Rhododendron Formation in the Old Maid Flat area west of Mount Hood and

lithologically similar to a dacite flow near Lolo Pass northwest of

Mount Hood which has been K-Ar dated at 9 to 10 m.y.b.p. (Tolan and

Beeson, 1984; Priest and others, 1982).

The transition from lower to upper member Troutdale Formation is

assumed to have taken place in early Pliocene time (Tolan and Beeson,

1984). At this time high-alumina basaltic eruptions were occurring in

the Mount Hood area as well as throughout the Cascades (Hammond, 1979;

Wise, 1969; White and McBirney, 1978). Capping of the Troutdale

Formation by high-alumina basalts or Boring Lava equivalent, along with

uplift in the Cascades, ended the accumulation of sediment along the

ancestral Columbia River in the western Cascade Range. An approximate

date of 2 m.y.b.p. has been suggested as a minimum age for upper member

deposition based on a K-Ar age date from a high-alumina lava flow

overlying upper member Troutdale Formation in the lower Columbia River

Gorge (Tolan and Beeson, 1984).

Treasher (1942) identified weathered lithic sands, gravels and

bouldery conglomerates southeast of Portland as part of the Troutdale

Formation based on their degree of weathering and similarity to the

coarse uppermost Troutdale Formation along the Sandy River and lower

Columbia River Gorge. Trimble (1963) separated this apron-like sheet

of weathered mudf lows and gravels from the Troutdale Formation because

of their lithology, position above flows of Boring Lava, and apparent

unconformable contact with the quartzite-pebble-bearing Troutdale

Formation. The Springwater and Walters Hill Formations were created to

include these deposits (Trimble, 1963). Other Pleistocene deposits are

associated with the drainages of existing rivers such as the Sandy and

Clackamas near the southeast margin of the Portland Basin (Trimble,

1963). Pleistocene flood deposits, and older Pleistocene sands,

gravels and muds derived from the Columbia River drainage system cover

much of the greater Portland area (Trimble, 1963).

Strata penetrated during well drilling by the Portland Water

Bureau contain numerous fluvially deposited hyaloclastites or basaltic

glass sands (also referred to as vitric sands), and sediment rich in

basaltic glass (Hoffstetter, 1984; Willis, 1977). Hydrogeologic units

informally named by Hoffstetter (1984) that contain hyaloclastites and

vitric-rich beds are the Parkrose aquitard, Troutdale Sand aquifer,

Rose City, aquifer and Rose City aquitard (Figure 6a). Hyaloclastites

are exposed at the surface near Blue Lake and vitric material is found

in drill cuttings to an elevation of -925 feet in well 1N/2E 29DA.

Four well area hyaloclastite units were given abbreviated names (Figure

6b) based on informal aquifer and aquitard names of Hoffstetter (1984).

The four units from lower to upper are: The lower Rose City aquifer

hyaloclastite units (LRC), the Rose City aquifer hyaloclastite units

(RC), the Troutdale Sand aquifer units (TSA), and the Upper Troutdale

Sand aquifer units (UTSA).

The TSA and RC hyaloclastite units contain the bulk of the vitric

material deposited in the well area. The RC, TSA and UTSA vitric sand

beds in the well area are correlative with the upper member of the

Troutdale Formation. The basaltic glass-bearing sand LRC is within

lower Troutdale Formation equivalent sediment and is distinct in source

from the upper Troutdale hyaloclastic beds (RC, TSA and UTSA).

Hyaloclastic debris forms as lava advances into a body of water

or is erupted beneath water. Glass is formed by rapid chilling of

lava. In cases where lava flows into standing water such as a lake,

water trapped by advancing flow lobes turns to steam causing explosive

brecciation of the glass (Fuller, 1931). Typically, this sort of

basalt-water interaction produces brecciated glass and pillows. This

glassy material and basaltic debris tends to accumulate in place and

produce a pillow-palagonite complex with hyaloclastic debris and basalt

pillows accumulating in foreset beds.

The fluvial deposition of upper Troutdale Formation

hyaloclastites in the lower Columbia River Gorge does not resemble the

debris accumulation of a pillow-palagonite complex. A more appropriate

name for the upper Troutdale basaltic glass-rich sediment is reworked

or fluvially-deposited hyaloclastite based on the nomenclature of

Silvestri (1961). A mechanism that could form the reworked

hyaloclastites of the upper Troutdale Formation requires that the

hyaloclastic debris be actively removed from the source lavas in order

to produce the near purely hyaloclastic sedimentary beds found in the

Troutdale Formation.

Lavas erupted into a major river such as the Columbia would form

hyaloclastic debris. The river, although it may be constricted by the

lava flow entering its course, would continue to flow past the lava

flow. River flow over and around the erupting lava would continuously

produce and transport hyaloclastic debris along with crystalline

Page 28: A stratigraphic-geochemical study of the Troutdale ...

15

fragments eroded from flows and pillows. Partial damming of the river

by lavas, along with the sudden addition of hyaloclastic sediment,

could lead to the deposition of a sheet or apron of sediment

downstream. After an eruptive period it is likely that the river

channel would cut into the hyaloclastic debris sheet and rework some of

it.

It is likely that the interlayering of hyaloclastic or vitric

sands with arkosic sands, gravels and muds of the Portland Well Field

is the result of intermittent periods of high-alumina basalt eruptive

activity along the course of a river draining over a flood plain in the

Portland area. During eruptive periods basaltic hyaloclastic sediment

would choke the river system and result in the deposition of

hyaloclastites. Between major eruptive events, non-locally derived,

ancestral Columbia River sediment and mixed local and non-local

sediment would be deposited.

Geochemical Analysis

Sediment, hyaloclastite and basalt samples were analysed at

Portland State University using Instrumental Neutron Activation

Analysis (INAA). Elements detected with acceptable experimental errors

are: Na, K, Sc, Cr, Fe, Co, Cs, Hf, Ta, the rare earth elements La, Ce,

Sm, Eu, Tb, Yb and Lu, and Th. Eighty-seven samples (not including

standards) were analyzed in three experiments. Appendix A gives type

of material sampled, location, formation and member, and experiment

number for samples analyzed. Appendix B gives a more detailed

description of the analytical procedure along with data tables showing

elemental concentrations determined for each sample. Three vitric

CHAPTER II

NON-HYALOCLASTIC SEDIMENTARY ROCKS OF THE SANDY RIVER MUDSTONE

AND TROUTDALE FORMATION

Lithology

Previous workers (Williams, 1916; Bretz, 1917; Allen, 1932;

Hodge, 1938; Trimble, 1957, 1963; Cole, 1983; Tolan, 1982) have

described the lithology of beds currently included in the Troutdale

Formation and the Sandy River Mudstone. Most descriptions of the

Troutdale Formation note the two distinct lithologies that are included

in Tolan and Beeson's (1984) upper and lower members of the Troutdale

Formation. Sediment, that for the most part, is correlative with the

lower member paleo-Columbia River gravels is described as fluvial

gravels composed of basaltic pebbles and cobbles along with non­

volcanic pebbles of granitic and metamorphic rock types of which

quartzite is most prominently noted. Sand lenses and matrix within

these gravels are typically described as a micaceous arkose. Sediment

that composes the upper member of the Troutdale Formation has been

described as basaltic tuffs, agglomerates or hyaloclastites and

basaltic gravel attributed to a volcanic origin. Non-locally-derived

clasts such as quartzite pebbles and arkosic sand are less common in

the upper member.

The lithology of the Sandy River Mudstone is described as sandy

mudstone, mudstone and claystone with a few sand and gravel beds

(Trimble, 1963). Trimble (1963) noted the presence of volcanic ash

Page 31: A stratigraphic-geochemical study of the Troutdale ...

18

beds in the Sandy River Mudstone southeast of Oregon City, Oregon.

Trimble's (1963) Sandy River Mudstone-Troutdale Formation transition

has been estimated to be equivalent to the transition from lower member

to upper member Troutdale Formation (Tolan and Beeson, 1984).

Within the well area the hyaloclastic beds are interbedded with

intervals of non-hyaloclastic sediment. These sediments are

predominantly muds and sandy muds with a few clay or claystone beds. A

30- to 90-foot-thick gravel bed is found near the base of the TSA unit

(Willis, 1977). The generally fine grained non-hyaloclastic beds

account for up to 50 percent of the sediment within the well interval

that contains the RC, TSA and UTSA hyaloclastic units (Figure 6).

Fine-grained sediment also dominates below the interval containing the

RC, TSA and UTSA hyaloclastic units.

The Troutdale Formation samples taken from the well area were

assigned to the either the upper or lower Troutdale Formation of Tolan

and Beeson (1984). The presence of hyaloclastic beds was used as a

determinator for upper member Troutdale Formation. Sediment below the

lowest hyaloclastic sediment and above the inferred Columbia River

basalt basin floor is called lower Troutdale Formation. This was done

for two reasons. One is to establish a time line within the well area

sediments equivalent to the base of the upper Troutdale Formation. The

other is to separate the fine grained upper member Troutdale Formation

sediment from texturally similar Sandy River Mudstone.

Sediment samples from the well area and outcrop locations were

analyzed geochemically and petrographically to determine if there is a

change in the non-hyaloclastic sediment related to the change from

Page 32: A stratigraphic-geochemical study of the Troutdale ...

19

lower to upper member of the Troutdale Formation in the well area and

to determine whether the lower member of the Troutdale Formation and

the Sandy River Mudstone are geochemically and lithologically similar.

Petrographic Line Counts

Petrographic line counts were performed on suites of samples

collected from wells 1N/2E 29DA and 1N/3E 20CB2 and outcrop samples

from the Sandy River Mudstone and Troutdale Formation to characterize

their lithology. Comparisons were made between elastic composition of

upper member and lower member Troutdale Formation sand from the wells

and the lower member Troutdale and Sandy River Mudstone from the type

areas near Troutdale and Bridal Veil, Oregon.

Sand samples were sieved to -25 to +120 mesh to insure uniformity

of grain size and to facilitate the mechanics of mounting and staining

of feldspar grains. Sample splits were mounted on petrographic slides

in Canada balsam and hand lapped to expose all grains to staining.

Each slide was examined to determine general lithologic composition,

then stained for potassium feldspar and plagioclase. After staining,

each grain mount was line counted. The line count results are given in

Table I.

Samples of the lower member Troutdale Formation from the well

area and the Bridal Veil Channel, and the Sandy River Mudstone from

outcrops along the Sandy River are arkosic arenites (Figure 7)

according to the classification of McBride (1963). Sample 1-1120 is an

exception, this sample comes from a sideromelane-bearing gravel 250-300

feet below the transition to upper member Troutdale Formation as

defined by the presence of vitric sand beds. Upper member Troutdale

Formation sands from both the well area and the Bridal Veil section

plot in the feldspathic litharenite field (Figure 7). Modern lower

Columbia River sediment data from Whetten and others (1969) form a

field that overlaps lower and upper member Troutdale Formation data.

Modern Columbia River sand becomes increasingly lithic downstream, from

above The Dalles to the Sandy River (Whetten and others, 1969).

Tolan's (1982) lower member Troutdale sands are somewhat more

feldspathic than samples counted in this study. However, total

feldspar plus quartz and total lithic grains are similar.

Sediment Geochemistry

The Sandy River Mudstone, lower member Troutdale Formation and

upper member Troutdale Formation are characterized by trace and minor

element concentrations. Sediment geochemical data are used to

determine the transition from lower to upper member Troutdale Formation

in the well area and to aid in determining if Sandy River Mudstone is

similar to either member of the Troutdale Formation.

Most high-alumina basalts of the High Cascade Group basalts and

Boring Lavas in the northern Oregon Cascade Range and Portland area are

higher in chromium than typical modern Columbia River sediment by a

factor of two to six. Iron, scandium and cobalt are also found in 50%

to 100% higher concentrations in the high-alumina lavas than in modern

sediment (Whetten and others, 1969; Darolyn Burch, 1980 unpublished

manuscript). Modern sediment was expected to be fairly similar to pre­

high-alumina basalt-derived sediment because the ancestral Columbia

River appears to have drained an area geologically similar to its

present drainage. Fecht and others (1983) state that a post-Columbia

Page 36: A stratigraphic-geochemical study of the Troutdale ...

23

River basalt, paleo-Columbia River system drained highlands surrounding

the Columbia Plateau. This is a similar area to that drained by t~e

modern Columbia River system. Figure 8, a generalized bedrock type map

of the modern Columbia River, shows the distribution of volcanic and

non-volcanic rocks in the Columbia River Basin.

INAA Experiment 7T (see appendix B) was completed with sediment

samples from well 1N/3E 20CB2 to determine if a geochemical signature

could be identified for the upper and lower Troutdale Formation

sediments in this well. Samples were sieved to -200 mesh to insure

inter-sample uniformity of grain size and to remove extraneous material

that may have fallen down hole or broken off storage containers. The

procedure used in experiment 7T was repeated in experiment 7H (see

appendix B) using samples taken at approximately twenty five foot

intervals from sediment below the obvious base of the TSA and/or RC

hyaloclastite beds in well holes 1N/2E 29DA and 1N/3E 31CD.

Geochemical data for sediment samples from well 1N/3E 20CB2

(experiment 7T) indicate a distinct geochemical difference between

sediment below sample 5-535 and samples above 5-535 characterized by an

increase of chromium, iron, scandium, and cobalt at sample 5-535 and

above. This is associated with the presence of hyaloclastic material

and other high-alumina basalt derived elastic material in the sediment

in the interval between samples 5-535 and 5-135 in well 1N/3E 20CB2. A

graph of Sc versus Co (Figure 9) shows the trend encountered. Samples

5-535, 5-440, 5-400 and 5-165 show some deviation from the group of

lower member Troutdale Formation and Sandy River Mudstone toward the

area of the vitric separates and lithic arenites in Figure 9. Two

samples from the the upper member in well 1N/3E 20CB2, 5-135 and 5-305

fall within the lower member and Sandy River Mudstone group.

Results of INAA experiment 7H, using suites of sediment from

below the base of the obvious hyalocatic beds in wells 1N/2E 29DA and

1N/3E 31CD, indicate no sediment group characterized by higher amounts

of chromium, scandium, cobalt and iron similar to the upper sediments

in 1N/3E 20CB2. Figure 10 plots Sc versus Co for INAA experiment 7H

samples indicating no significant amount of hyaloclastic material or

other high-alumina basalt derived sediment is detected based on the

criteria established for well hole 1N/3E 20CB2.

The increases in chromium, iron, scandium and cobalt found above

sample 5-535 in well hole 1N/3E 20CB2 are similar to what might be

caused by adding high-alumina basalt-derived sediment of the

composition found in the analyzed hyaloclastites. Sediment beds in the

high chromium-scandium-iron-cobalt group are intimately associated with

the TSA and RC hyaloclastite units. The sediment chemistry group

characterized by higher concentrations of Cr, Fe, Sc and Co is evident

only down to the base of the TSA and RC hyaloclastite units. Sediment

from between the stratigraphically lowest hyaloclastite-bearing unit

(LRC) at a well depth of 1125 feet (-925 feet elev.) in 1N/2E 29DA and

the base of the TSA-RC hyaloclastites shows no Cr, Fe, Sc and Co

enrichment similar to the sediment in proximity to the TSA and RC

hyaloclastite units.

Total elemental abundances can vary with sediment texture, e.g.

mudrocks tend to have higher trace element concentrations than sands

(Haskin and others, 1966), while relative concentrations are usually

Page 40: A stratigraphic-geochemical study of the Troutdale ...

27

alike for most sediments from a similar type geologic provenance

(Bhatia and Taylor, 1981). Generally, in sediment, rare earth element

abundances tend to increase with progressively more evolved source

areas. The lowest concentrations are associated with undissected

magmatic arcs. Dissected magmatic arcs and more evolved continental

areas would have increasingly higher concentrations of rare earth

elements and thorium. More evolved continental crust rocks tend to

have lower La/Th ratios (Bhatia and Taylor, 1981; Nance and Taylor,

1976).

A graph of lanthanum versus thorium (Figure 11) was drawn to help

display possible variations in geochemistry caused by sediment

contributions from differing source areas based on the relative amounts

of these elements. Most sediment samples plotted on the lanthanum to

thorium graph fell on or near a line with a slope of 4, indicating a

relatively constant lanthanum to thorium ratio. This is near the

maximum lanthanum to thorium ratio found in fine grained sediments

(McLennan and others, 1980). Sediments from the Troutdale Formation

with the lowest total amount of lanthanum and thorium are associated

with vitric-bearing gravels and sands.

When the distribution of the Troutdale Formation and Sandy River

Mudstone samples in Figure 11 is compared to the provenance type areas

of Bhatia and Taylor (1981), the Troutdale Formation-Sandy River

Mudstone sediment appears to be most similar to the field of sediment

derived from a dissected magmatic arc.

Examination of the sediment geochemical data suggests that the

fine sediment fraction sampled (-200 mesh) is biased toward sediment

derived from all portions of the drainage basin. Examination of

whole sediment samples with a binocular microscope showed that the

locally-derived volcanic sediment in the Troutdale Formation tends to

be coarser and therefore not as well represented in the finer fraction.

In extreme cases when predominately volcanic detritus is deposited,

there would a higher likelihood of detecting its presence

geochemically. This is the case with the several samples taken from

the upper portion of well 1N/3E 20CB2.

Page 43: A stratigraphic-geochemical study of the Troutdale ...

CHAPTER III

VITRIC BEDS AND THEIR USE AS STRATIGRAPHIC MARKERS

General

No single criterion served to identify specific hyaloclastite

beds. Vitric units within the well area are divided into four groups

based on statigraphic position, lithology and geochemical

characteristics, as determined by INAA. The four well area groups of

hyaloclastite and vitric material-bearing sand were assigned

abbreviated names (Figure 6) based on informal hydrogeologic unit names

of Hoffstetter (1984). The four hyaloclastic units from lower to

uppermost are the LRC, RC, TSA and UTSA. The TSA and RC hyaloclastic

units contain the bulk of the vitric material deposited in the well

area. Along with the UTSA hyaloclastic beds the TSA and RC units are

equivalent to the type Troutdale section of Trimble (1963) and the

informal upper member Troutdale Formation of Tolan and Beeson (1984).

The lower Rose City (LRC) hyaloclastite unit is not a hyaloclastite but

a sideromelane-bearing sandy gravel. The LRC is included in the lower

Troutdale Formation of the well area. Cross-sections showing

correlation of hyaloclastic units in the well area based on natural

gamma logs, trace element geochemistry and lithology are compiled in

Appendix C.

The TSA unit can be found in all wells sampled in this study.

Other vitric beds are missing in at least one hole. Material of the

upper Troutdale sandstone aquifer (UTSA) unit is not found in holes

Page 44: A stratigraphic-geochemical study of the Troutdale ...

1N/3E 33AD or 1N/3E 20CB2 in the eastern portion of the well area.

Here it appears to have been either removed or not deposited prior to

deposition of the Parkrose gravel aquifer. Well 1N/2E 29DA, which has

the thickest section of vitric-bearing sediments, does not appear to

have a Rose City (RC) hyaloclastite unit. However, some sediment in

well 1N/2E 29DA below sample 1-715, which may be correlative with the

Rose City (RC) hyaloclastite, was not available for analysis due to

circulation loss during drilling. The LRC is a geochemically unique

hyaloclastic debris-bearing sandy gravel in well 1N/2E 29DA at the

1150-foot to 1120-foot well depth and possibly in trace amounts in a

gravel at 945 foot level in well 1N/3E 31CD.

Hyaloclastite Lithology

Unpalagonitized well area beds consist of medium to coarse

grained subangular to subrounded, very dark brown vitric sand or in

many cases vitric sand mixed with arkosic sand, mud and gravel. The

only macroscopic lithologic difference between the well area

hyaloclastite units is finer grain size and the presence of

palagonitization in some of the beds. Most vitric grains have a very

thin bluish-gray to light brown rind or veneer. Tiny clear to light

yellow clusters of plagioclase and olivine crystals can be seen with

the unaided eye or a 10-power hand lense.

In outcrop, vitric sands or hyaloclastites appear much more

weathered and palagonitized than those encountered by well drilling in

the Portland basin. Outcrop hyaloclastites are usually deep rusty

brown or red to orange and sometimes yellow and pink in color. In many

outcrops only small cores of sideromelane glass remain unpalagonitized.

Page 45: A stratigraphic-geochemical study of the Troutdale ...

In some beds orange-yellow pumice clasts are mixed with vitric and

crystalline grains.

32

Palagonite is a term coined to describe a yellow to brown waxy

substance found in basaltic tuffs near Palagonia, Sicily (von

Waltershausen, 1845, in Fisher and Schmincke, 1984, p.314) that is

commonly applied to altered elastic or fragmental basaltic glass

deposits. Palagonitization takes place under various temperature and

chemical conditions ranging from hydrothermal alteration to surficial

weathering processes (Fisher and Schminke, 1984). Non-marine, low­

temperature palagonitization takes place rapidly above the water table

in percolating groundwater, and produces clays, zeolites, calcite and

opal (Hay and Iijima, 1968). Below the water table, palagonitization

takes place much more slowly (Christensen and Gilbert, 1964 in Hay and

Iijima, 1968). The clear, glassy unpalagonitized character of most

buried well area hyaloclastites suggests that they were buried before

they were affected by appreciable weathering and palagonitization.

Hyaloclastite Petrography

Several grain mount slides and thin sections, made from

geochemically analyzed vitric separate samples, were examined using a

petrographic microscope. Sideromelane grains in thin sections made

from well area TSA and RC bed sediment cuttings are indistinguishable

based on estimated percentages of crystals present and textural

characteristics. Outcrop samples from the Sandy River area and the

Bridal Veil Channel were nearly identical to the TSA and RC well

samples. All are dark brown glass with tiny tabular and lath shaped

plagioclase crystals, clusters of olivine grains and very small, well-

formed olivine crystals in the glass groundmass. The geochemically

unique sample from the LRC, sample l-1125G, is petrographically similar

to the other hyaloclastites examined.

Sample BV-9, the uppermost sample that was geochemically analyzed

from the Bridal Veil section, is composed predominantly of clasts of

subophitic olivine basalt. Red iddingsite occurs as rinds on the

olivine and as smaller grains in the matrix. Iddingsite is an

alteration following olivine (Deer and others, 1966). Red iddingsite

occurs commonly in high-alumina basalts of the High Cascades and the

Boring Lavas (Peck and others, 1964; Trimble, 1963; Wise, 1969).

However, iddingsite has not been found to be abundant in the

hyaloclastic clasts petrographically examined.

Hyaloclastite Geochemistry

Thirty-four well area and outcrop samples of hyaloclastic and

lithic sand were analyzed using INAA. In most samples, weathered

hyaloclastites and vitric-bearing sediment were manually picked for

clean unweathered glass clasts. Unweathered glass was separated to

provide a sample composed exclusively of fresh basaltic glass to avoid

possible weathering and alteration effects on trace element

concentrations. Several well cutting samples and outcrop samples in

INAA experiments 7T and 7K are cemented, palagonitic hyaloclastites or

lithic sands for which it was impractical or impossible to separate the

glass from the rest of the sample. In these cases the entire rock

sample was analyzed.

A more complete description of the analytical procedure and a

complete table of results is in appendix B. Results of geochemical

analyses are given in Table II. Appendix A lists sediment type,

location, and stratigraphic unit for all the analyzed vitric samples

and Plate I shows the stratigraphic position of the samples. Major

oxide contents for representative vitric separates from the TSA, RC and

LRC vitric units are in (Table III).

Geochemically, as well as lithologically, the hyaloclastite units

appear to come from very similar source material. Major oxide

geochemical data indicate that the TSA and RC vitric separates are

derived from high-alumina basalts. The RC and TSA units are,

essentially, geochemically indistinguishable from each other except for

a tendency toward slightly higher chromium concentration (about 10%

higher) in the TSA hyaloclastite. The UTSA unit is unique in its lower

Cr, Na and K content and higher amounts of light rare earth elements.

Figure 12, a graph of chromium versus lanthanum/samarium shows

variation within the group.

Due to its uniquely deep stratigraphic position a vitric separate

from l-1125G was sent for major oxide analysis to determine if it was

derived from a Columbia River Basalt Group flow postdating those found

in western Oregon. Major oxide chemistry shows the sample l-1125G

vitric material to be a high-alumina basalt dissimilar to the TSA-RC

material. Higher concentrations of titania (TiOz) and P2 05 set the LRC

apart from the TSA-RC vitric material (Figure 19).

Vitric sand from stratigraphic sections along the Sandy River and

Bridal Veil channel appear to be geochemically and lithologically

indistinguishable from the TSA and probably the RC vitric units of the

well area. The higher chromium concentration in the outcrop samples is

similar to the TSA group (Figure 12; Table II). Lithic sands from low

in the Sandy River section geochemically resemble the cemented UTSA and

upper portions of the TSA, and l-710G and l-715G from the lower portion

of the TSA-RC section in well 1N/2E 29DA.

Discussion of Geochemical Data

The geochemical variation between upper and lower portions of a

single hyaloclastite bed in the RC and TSA are in some cases as great

as the difference between the the two groups. Within a single

hyaloclastite bed, chromium, cobalt and iron decrease in concentration

upwards while hafnium, tantalum, and the rare earth elements increase

in their concentration upward. The only exception in the group is

sample 6-571G; it is unusually low in all elements; but relative

elemental concentrations are similar to the other TSA and RC vitric

separates. Two probable sources of geochemical variation in the beds

are weathering effects and changes in the source material.

Some of the geochemical variation can be explained by element

loss and enrichment during devitrification of sideromelane glass to

palagonite. Uppermost beds of the TSA and the UTSA unit show some

palagonitization. Typically sodium and potassium are depleted when

basaltic glass is altered in low temperature meteoric water to

palagonite (Hay and Iijirna, 1968). Palagonitization effects probably

do not account for the lower chromium concentrations and is rarely the

cause of enriched light rare earth elements in fresh water systems

(Furnes, 1978). However, the higher La/Sm ratios of the non-vitric

separate saoples and separates with some weathering rind appears to

disagree with Furnes' observation for rare earth elements.

Page 53: A stratigraphic-geochemical study of the Troutdale ...

Dilution by non-hyaloclastite sediment is another possible source

of variation. Comparing the distribution of elements in both sediment

and sideromelane samples indicates that the degree of dilution required

to lower the concentrations of elements such as chromium, scandium,

cobalt and iron is incompatable with corresponding enrichment of the

rare earth elements and thorium. Figure 10 shows a non-linear trend

between Sc and Co for sediments and "vitric" samples in experiment 7H.

However, addition of non-high-alumina basalt-derived sediment may

account for some of the variation.

Changes in geochemical content of sources as eruptive events

proceeded may account for chemical variation between the TSA-RC and

UTSA units as well as the presence of beds within the TSA and RC

similar to the UTSA. A trend toward enrichment of the rare earth

elements, thorium, hafnium and tantalum occurs upward in the TSA and RC

along with a decrease in the concentrations of iron, scandium, chromium

and cobalt.

CHAPTER IV

HIGH-ALUMINA BASALTS AND THEIR RELATION

TO HYALOCLASTITES

High Cascade basalt flows are distributed throughout the higher

elevations and eastern slopes of the Cascade Range and as intracanyon

flows and isolated centers on the western side of the Cascade Range

(Peck and others, 1964). The Boring Lavas are dispersed eruptive units

resulting from local vents in the greater Portland area and the western

edge of the northern Oregon and southern Washington Cascade Range

(Treasher, 1942; Trimble, 1963; Allen, 1975). Lithologic and

stratigraphic similarities show that the Boring Lavas are part of the

High Cascades lavas (Peck and others, 1964). Tolan and Beeson (1984)

informally applied the name high-alumina basalts to the High Cascades

basalts and Boring Lavas found in the lower Columbia River Gorge.

Wise (1969) divided post-Rhododendron Formation High Cascade

lavas of the Mount Hood area into three groups based on ages determined

by potassium-argon dates, major oxide geochemistry and petrography.

Wise's general groupings within the High Cascade Group as modified by

Priest (1982) are: (1) lower Pliocene rocks (12(?) to 5 m.y.b.p.), (2)

upper Pliocene rocks (S to 2 m.y.b.p.) and (3) Pleistocene to recent

rocks including the stratovolcanos of the Cascade Range. Figure 13

shows Wise's (1969) Mount Hood area stratigraphic units as modified by

Priest (1982).

Both the High Cascades Lavas and Boring Lavas are characterized

by predominately basaltic lava flows with some andesite, tuff breccias

and ash deposits (Peck and others, 1964 and Trimble, 1963). The lavas

range from aphyric to diktytaxitic olivine and plagioclase bearing

flows. Wise (1969) and other workers (White and McBirney, 1978;

Priest, 1982) have described the transition from the "older Pliocene"

to ''younger Pliocene" lavas as change from basalts and andesites to

less voluminous but more basaltic volcanism. Pleistocene to Recent

volcanism are described as producing increasingly andesitic and

intermediate (dacitic) volcanic rocks (Wise, 1969; White and McBirney,

1978).

INAA geochemical data and major oxide data for hyaloclastites are

compared with published and unpublished analyses of High Cascade Lavas

to determine possible sources of the Troutdale Formation

hyaloclastites. Correlation of hyaloclastites with their eruptive

sources could enable extending age dates from dated basaltic sources to

the Troutdale Formation or conversely establishing the relative timing

of eruptive sources by the stratigraphic sequence of hyaloclastites in

the Troutdale Formation.

No attempt is made to use petrography to identify or correlate

vitric material with basalts. High alumina-basalts are described as

phyric olivine basalts with minor clinopyroxene and orthopyroxene

phenocrysts (Wise, 1969).

Geochemical Correlation

Lava samples to be analyzed were collected in the Columbia River

Gorge during the fall of 1983 and summer of 1984. A group of samples

Page 57: A stratigraphic-geochemical study of the Troutdale ...

44

was collected from a pillow-palagonite complex west of Hood River,

Oregon that is interpreted to be the result of High Cascades basalt

dar.uning the Columbia River (Waters, 1973). Samples were also collected

from lavas on the east side of the lower Hood River Valley. Other

samples were collected from a flow intercalated with upper Troutdale

sediment in the Bridal Veil Channel and from a flow at Prune Hill in

Washington, across the Columbia River from Blue Lake Park in northeast

Portland.

Geochemical analyses done by other workers include INAA analyses

of Boring Lavas (Darolyn Burch, 1980 unpublished INAA data) and

published and unpublished trace element and major oxide data for high­

alumina basalts of the Columbia River Gorge area and the Mount Hood

area. Plate 2 is a map showing the locations of basalts for which

geochemical data are used in this report. Table II contains INAA data

generated in this study.

Specific correlations of the TSA-RC hyaloclastites with

individual eruptive centers is not possible because the existing

geochemical data do not allow discrimination between specific high­

aluminia basalts flows of similar geochemistry. In other words, the

hyaloclastites can only be correlated with general groups of basalts

based on the data available. General correlation can be made based on

the geochemical range found in high-alumina basalts and their

geographic distribution. Figure 14 has general correlations between

the Troutdale Formation hyaloclastic units of the Portland basin and

the volcanic source rocks along the Columbia River.

Hyaloclastite units are placed into two geochemical groups for

purposes of correlation with basaltic sources. Only vitric separates

were used for comparison to potential sources. This was done to avoid

geochemical variations of hyaloclastic sediment that could result from

weathering and sediment contamination. The TSA-RC geochemical group

includes vitric separates from the TSA and RC beds. No vitric

separates were available from UTSA beds. The UTSA is assumed to be a

continuation of the eruptive events that resulted in the deposition of

the TSA beds in the Portland Basin. The LRC geochemical "group" is

based on geochemical analysis of one sample from well hole 1N/2E 29DA

showing vitric material unique from the TSA-RC group. The two main

well area hyaloclastite units, the TSA and RC, are essentially

equivalent and account for the bulk of the hyaloclastite material of

the well area. The LRC is vitric material separated from a basaltic

glass-bearing sandy gravel and represents a very small percentage of

the total vitric material of the well area.

In outcrop, the hyaloclastites of the upper member of the

Troutdale Formation are equivalent to the well area TSA and RC

hyaloclastite units. TSA-RC equivalent units have been correlated from

the Portland Basin to the Bridal Veil Channel (Figure 2; Plate I) where

there is approximately 200 feet of TSA-RC equivalent material below the

intercolated high-alumina basalt flow. Above the high-alumina basalt

flow the upper member becomes coarser, with bouldery, gravelly channel­

like features and coarse lithic and vitric sands. Surface exposure of

the LRC is not known to exist.

When hyaloclastite trace element geochemistry is compared to the

available trace element data from high-alumina basalts of the Portland,

Oregon City, and Columbia River Gorge areas, a pattern emerges.

Hyaloclastites of the TSA-RC unit are grouped together rather tightly

compared to the rest of the basalts (Figure 15, Figure 16, and Figure

17) and are gathered at one end of the total high-alumina basalt group.

The hyaloclastites of the RC-TSA are more primitive than most of

the high-alumina basalts of the Portland area and basaltic cones along

the lower Columbia River Gorge. The lower lanthanum to samarium ratios

(light to heavy rare earth elements), low thorium, and higher cobalt,

iron and scandium set the TSA-RC vitric separates apart from most of

the lavas in the High Cascades Group of northern Oregon and southern

Washington. Plots of lanthanum/samarium versus cobalt (Figure 15 and

Figure 16) and lanthanum to samarium versus lanthanum (Figure 17)

illustrate this characteristic. Lanthanum versus samarium ratios, an

indicator of light rare earth fractionation, are among the lowest found

in the data examined.

Major oxide geochemical data follow a trend similar to the trace

element data. TSA-RC samples appear to be relatively primitive basalts

of the High Cascades Group. The hyaloclastites of the TSA-RC are

basaltic in composition based upon a 53% Si02 limit between basalt and

andesite (Priest and others, 1983) and 53.5% Si02 based on White and

McBirney (1978). Figure 18, a plot of FeO*/MgO versus Si02 (FeO* = FeO

+ .9 Fe203 ) as described by Miyashiro (1974) shows the TSA-RC units

near the end of the basalt group trend near the calc-alkaline­

tholeiitic boundary. The FeO*/MgO versus Si02 graph shows the

hyaloclastites of the TSA-RC to be within the younger Pliocene basalt

field of Priest and others (1982) based on data from Wise (1969).

The LRC vitric separate sample is unique from all analyzed High

Cascades Group lavas in Northern Oregon (Wise, 1969; Tolan and Beeson,

1984; Gannett, 1982; Priest, 1982). It is set apart by much higher

titania (Ti02 ) content (2.42%) and relatively high P205 content (.42%).

The LRC sample is, with 53.9% Si02, on the border between basaltic and

basaltic andesite. In appearence the LRC sample is no different than

the other unweathered hyaloclastic material.

The LRC's stratigraphic position 300 feet below the TSA-RC beds

in the well area and its unique geochemistry indicate that it is

probably from an eruptive source distinct in origin and time from those

of the TSA-RC hyaloclastites. Comparison of the one major oxide

analysis of the LRC glass sample to available data from the Columbia

River Gorge and the northern Oregon and southern Washington Cascade

Range leads to a tentative correlation with two flows (4.5 and 7.5

m.y.b.p.) in the Simcoe Volcanics (James Anderson, 1985 written

coITLmunication). Figure 19, Ti02 versus P205 shows a separation of the

LRC, and Simcoe Volcanics basalts similar to the LRC, from the TSA, RC,

Columbia River Gorge and Mount Hood area basalts. It is possible that

LRC glass is from a source outside the immediate area of the ancestral

Columbia River. McBirney and White (1982) described Pliocene volcanism

in central and eastern Oregon and southwestern Idaho that could produce

basalts similar to the LRC glass.

The basaltic composition of the TSA-RC hyaloclastite units argues

that a source area should contain primarily basaltic rocks. Other

limiting geochemical criteria are the very low potassium (.02% to .20%

K20), low FeO*/MgO ratios, and rare earth element concentrations (5 ppm

La, <.05 ppm Th) of the TSA-RC units. Very few available analyses show

rocks with such low concentrations of these incompatible elements.

Examination of the most thorough study of the northern High

Cascades lavas in the Mount Hood area (Wise, 1969), indicates that few

of the eruptive centers examined by Wise (1969) are dominated by

basaltic rocks. Those eruptive centers that are primarily basaltic are

grouped stratigraphically within the ''upper Pliocene" rocks with K-Ar

ages between 4 and 2 m.y.b.p. (Figure 13, 5-2 m.y.b.p. Priest, 1982).

Two areas in which predominantly basaltic rocks were found are Lookout

Mountain on the east side of the Hood River fault, east of the Hood

River Valley and in the Bull Run area (Wise, 1969). These lavas are

not as characteristically low in K20 as the TSA-RC appear to be. They

may represent similar or contemporaneous lavas to those that are the

source of the TSA-RC hyaloclastites.

Basalts along the Columbia River Gorge near the city of Hood

River, Oregon are most similar to the TSA-RC hyaloclastites. These

include basalt and glass taken from the pillow-palagonite complex near

the base of Mount Defiance and lava from near the base of Underwood

Mountain and Beacon Rock. Basalts east of the palagonite complex

(Goff, 1977) at the West Hood River exit and Panorama Point, southeast

of Hood River are similar to, if not exactly the same as the vitric

units. Also, several very low K20 basalts were found among high­

alumina basalts sampled in the Columbia River Gorge by Tolan and Beeson

(1984). These were flows overlying or interbedded with upper member

Troutdale Formation.

Beeson and Moran (1979) stated that the Hood River Mount Defiance

Page 68: A stratigraphic-geochemical study of the Troutdale ...

SS

basalts dip 10 degrees eastward toward the Hood River Fault. The Hood

River Fault has been dated as post 3 m.y.b.p. (Beeson and Moran, 1979)

because it off sets and displaces upper Pliocene basalts that were

potassium-argon age dated at 3 m.y.b.p. by Wise (1969) on Lookout

Mountain. Beeson and Moran estimated the age of these eruptions to be

near to 3 m.y.b.p., however, they could be older. Hammond and Korosec

(1983) list chemical data and potassium-argon age dates for high­

alumina basalts similar to the TSA-RC in the Indian Heaven area of the

southern Washington Cascade Range. An age of 3.7 m.y.b.p. is assigned

to the basalt of Thomas Lake. While these basalts may not be suggested

as sources for the TSA-RC hyaloclastic debris, the Indian Heaven

basalts illustrate the geographic extent of volcanism similar to that

which produced the TSA and RC units.

To summarize, the basaltic glass clasts that compose the

hyaloclastite beds of the TSA and RC found in the well area and the

upper member Troutdale Formation found along the Sandy River and the in

the Bridal Veil Channel are derived from "upper Pliocene" High Cascade

Group basalts that were erupted between the Hood River Valley and the

lower Columbia River Gorge. The age of these basalts based on the

nomenclature of Wise (1969) modified by Priest (1982) is between S

m.y.b.p. and 2 m.y.b.p. The age of Hood River area basalts that are

correlable with the TSA-RC is estimated to be between S and 3 m.y.b.p.

(Beeson and Moran, 1979; Marvin Beeson, 1986 personal communication).

The LRC vitric material is similar to basalts in the Simcoe Volcanics

with ages ranging from 7.S m.y.b.p. to 2(?) m.y.b.p. The LRC is

separated from the base of the TSA-RC beds in the well area by

approximately 300 feet suggesting that timing of 7 to 3 m.y.b.p. for

deposition of the LRC unit and 5 to 3 m.y.b.p. for deposition of the

TSA-RC unit are not unreasonable.

CHAPTER V

STRUCTURAL DEFORMATION OF THE TROUTDALE FORMATION

Lack of recognizable stratigraphic horizons and limited areas of

exposure have hindered perception of structural deformation within the

Troutdale Formation and the Sandy River Mudstone. The Sandy River

Mudstone, and lower and upper members of the Troutdale Formation have

been described by most workers as relatively undisturbed sediment

filling a westward deepening basin in the Portland area. General

eastward thinning of the Troutdale Formation and eventual disappearence

of Troutdale Formation sediment toward the crest of the Cascade Range

is noted by several authors (Barnes and Butler, 1930; Allen, 1932;

Lowrey and Baldwin, 1952; Hodge, 1938; Trimble, 1963) (Figure 20).

Trimble (1963) used the transition of Sandy River Mudstone to Troutdale

Formation as a stratigraphic and structural marker. Using this marker,

he found regional dips of about two degrees westward into the Portland

Basin (Figure 21).

A more detailed stratigraphic interpretation of the Troutdale

Formation in the lower Columbia River Gorge and Portland area is

allowed by the recognition of stratigraphic upper and lower members

(Tolan and Beeson, 1984) within the ancestral Columbia River facies.

Delineation of the TSA, UTSA and RC hyaloclastite units as a marker

horizon within the Portland basin further refines the stratigraphy of

the Troutdale Formation for use in structural interpretation. Along

the Sandy River, Trimble's (1963) Sandy River Mudstone-Troutdale

Formation contact appears to be equivalent to Tolan and Beeson's (1984)

lower to upper Troutdale Formation transition in the Bridal Veil

channel. Within the well area the upper member Troutdale Formation

hyaloclastic beds define an interval within the muds, sands and gravels

of the Troutdale Formation and Sandy River Mudstone equivalent

sediments.

Based on the distribution of the upper Troutdale Formation

hyaloclastite beds in the lower Columbia River Gorge the relative

uplift between the Portland basin and Cascade Range along the Columbia

River Gorge can be determined. About 800 feet of uplift is found

between the the mouth of the Sandy River area and the Bridal Veil

channel 10 miles to the east. Wells in the easternmost portion of the

well area show the base of the RC to be at about -500 feet (wells:

1N/3E 31 CD, 1N/3E 20CB2), approxinately 550 feet lower than exposed

equivalents near the mouth of the Sandy River 4 miles to the east.

The Troudale Formation and Sandy River Mudstone appear to dip

shallowly westward from the Sandy River area to the eastern margin of

the well area (Figure 22). The cross-section in Figure 22 is based

upon exposures along the Sandy River and the stratigraphy within the

well area. The uppermost hyaloclastite units are truncated by the

overlying Troutdale Formation gravels in the eastern part of the the

well area. This may indicate that the western portion of the well area

was moving downward relative to the eastern portion at the time the

latest Troutdale Formation sediments were being deposited (Figure 22).

some downwarping of the synf ormal structure of the Portland basin

during deposion of the sediments. Beeson and others (1985), working

with Columbia River Basalt Group stratigraphy, interpret the Portland

Basin to be a pull-apart basin caused by right-lateral wrench faulting

related to the Portland Hills-Clackamas River Fault Zone, active since

at least middle Miocene time. The shallow basin that collected the

Troutdale Formation and Sandy River Mudstone extends east of the Sandy

River into what is now the western foothills of the Cascade Range.

While the current rhomoidal Portland basin appears to be a more recent

occurrence.

A monoclinal fold with a northwesterly axis is located between

the well area near Blue Lake and Prune Hill, northwest of Camas,

Washington. This structure postdates the upper Troutdale Formation

hyaloclastic beds and may be associated with the formation of the

currently existing Portland basin. Beds of TSA equivalent

hyaloclastite, dipping 10 to 15 degrees to the southwest, form cuesta­

like ridges at Taggart Bluff on the south shore of the Columbia River

and along the south shore of Blue Lake. Reconnaissance mapping in the

Prune Hill area identified an approximately 200-foot section of nearly

flat-lying fluvial hyaloclastic sediCTent and gravelly vitric sand,

exposed between elevations of 450 feet to 650 feet on the south side of

Prune Hill that are lithologically similar to the TSA sediment of the

well area.

A cross-section through this area shows a monclinal fold with

beds truncated by the Columbia River (Figure 23). Davis (1986

performed a gravity survey across the northwest-southeast-trending

Lackamas Lake lineament. Using the large density difference between

the Troutdale Formation and the underlying Columbia River basalts and

Skamania Volcanics Davis modeled several northwest-trending block

faults which cut the Columbia River basalts and presumably overlying

Troutdale Formation and Sandy River Mudstone near the eastern border of

the Portland basin and along the Lackamas Lake lineament.

Displacements are estimated to be up to 400 feet (Davis, 1986). The

400 to 500 foot displacement of the upper Troutdale Formation between

the well area and Prune Hill agrees with the magnitude of this probable

fault displacement.

The Blue Lake-Prune Hill deformation near the northeast margin of

the Portland Basin may be associated with the eruption of the Boring

Lavas in the Portland area. Beeson and others (1975) suggest that

Boring Lava volcanism in the Portland area is related to deformation

along the Portland Hills fault. Available potassium-argon age dates

for Boring Lavas of 2.6 m.y.b.p. for the Oregon City plateau and 1.3

m.y.b.p. at Rocky Butte (Norman MacLeod, Robert Duncan, and Edwin

McKee, 1985 written communication,) suggest that these rocks were

erupted in the very latest Pliocene to early Pleistocene.

This study finds that the Portland basin has been tectonically

active during and after the deposition of the Sandy River Mudstone and

Troutdale Formation. The basin appears to have thickened to the west

as upper Troutdale Formation sediment accumulated in the late

Pliocene(?). Post TSA-RC displacement defines the northeastern margin

of the Portland basin in its current form. Several hundred feet of

deformation is seen in the hyaloclastic beds of the upper member

Troutdale Formation between the well area south of Blue Lake and

exposures of equivalent strata across the Columbia River at Prune Hill.

More gradual deformation is seen between the well area and the

Troutdale Formation along the lower Sandy River area.

Page 79: A stratigraphic-geochemical study of the Troutdale ...

CHAPTER VI

LATE CENOZOIC GEOLOGIC HISTORY OF THE PORTLAND BASIN

Outcrop patterns mapped by Trimble (1963) and Tolan (1982)

suggest that the Columbia River Basalt Group lava flows were deposited

around hills of the older Eocene to Miocene Skamania Volcanics.

Columbia River basalt flows apparently entered the Portland area via a

trough in the northern Oregon Cascades (Beeson and Moran, 1979). Flows

passed through western Oregon and into the shallow marine sediments of

the Miocene northern Oregon coast (Beeson, Perttu and Perttu, 1979).

Trimble (1963) interpreted 400 feet of rock, logged at the bottom

of the Ladd Well in southeast Portland, to be Columbia River basalt. A

well drilled for the City of Fairview encountered basalt interpreted to

be Columbia River basalt at -670 feet elevation and other rocks

interpreted to be pre-Columbia River basalt rocks (Foxworthy and

others, 1964). The youngest Columbia River Basalt Group flow mapped

in western Oregon is the Pomona flow which occurs as an intracanyon

flow patially filling the Bridal Veil channel of Tolan and Beeson

(1984). This channel, was cut into older Columbia River Basalt Group

flows (Tolan and Beeson, 1984). Deformation of the Columbia River

basalts was occurring in the Portland area at the time of basalt

deposition, but little sediment accumulation occurred (Beeson and

others 1975; Beeson and others, 1985).

As Columbia River basalt volcanism ended in late Miocene time,

deformation continued. Muds and sandy muds equivalent to the lower

Page 80: A stratigraphic-geochemical study of the Troutdale ...

67

member of the Troutdale Formation and the Sandy River Mudstone

accumulated in a basin which apparently extended from the eastern base

of the Tualatin Mountains to east of the present-day Sandy River. At

the same time in the Cascade Range, an ancestral Columbia River

deposited sandy gravels in the confined canyon of the Bridal Veil

channel. Also, at this time, volcaniclastics equivalent to the upper

Rhododendron Formation were deposited within the lower member Troutdale

Formation in the Bridal Veil Channel. No Rhododendron Formation

volcanic units are found in the well area sediments.

The hyaloclastic debris-bearing gravel LRC bed is the first

evidence of Pliocene high-alumina-volcanism-derived sediraent deposited

in the Portland basin. Vitric material from the LRC bed (sample l-

1125G) is derived from lavas of the Simcoe Volcanics, 7 to 2 m.y.b.p.,

in the Goldendale, Washington area.

Cascadian high-alumina basalts erupted during the early Pliocene

(5 to 2 m.y.b.p.) interacted with the ancestral Columbia River to form

the fluvially deposited hyaloclastites of the RC, TSA and upper TSA

units. Basalts similar to the TSA-RC hyaloclastites are found in an

area from the Hood River Valley to the Bull Run area. A high-alumina

basalt flow with chemistry similar to the TSA-RC is found within the

upper member Troutdale Formation at Bridal Veil. An exposed pillow

palagonite complex along Interstate Highway 84 just west of the city of

Hood River, Oregon suggests interaction of lava with a lake (Waters,

1973).

After the uppermost hyaloclastite beds were deposited, another

episode of deformation took place. Upper Troutdale Formation sediment

Page 81: A stratigraphic-geochemical study of the Troutdale ...

68

consisting chiefly of gravels that are mixed Columbia River sediment

and volcanic lithic clasts apparently derived from the Cascade Range

accumulated to at least what is now about 600 to 700 feet elevation in

the Portland area. Rocky Butte, Mount Tabor, Kelly Butte and Powell

Butte all are partially composed of post hyaloclastite gravels

recognized to be Troutdale Formation (Trimble, 1963; Treasher, 1942).

Reconnaissance mapping of Troutdale Formation outcrops in the

Lackamas Lake-Prune Hill area, Washington indicates that 400 to 500

feet of downward displacement has occurred within the upper Troutdale

Formation between Prune Hill and the Blue Lake area. The rectangular

shape of the Portland Basin as it exists today appears to be the result

of this period of tectonic activity.

A period of erosion appears to have followed deposition of the

Troutdale Formation sediments and preceded eruption of the Portland

area high-alumina basalts (Boring Lavas). Lavas near Prune Hill,

Washington are at lower elevations than near-by upper member Troutdale

Formation hyaloclastites. A similar exa~ple is found on the west of

Rocky Butte.

An approximate upper age of under 2 m.y.b.p. is placed on the

Troutdale Formation based on the stratigraphic relationship between the

Troutdale Formation and Boring Lava vents in the Portland area. Boring

Lavas intrude and apparently have deposited scoria and ash within or on

the Troutdale Formation at Rocky Butte, Mount Tabor, Kelly Butte and

Powell Butte. The Boring Lava at Rocky Butte has been radiometrically

dated at 1.3 m.y.b.p. (Edwin McKee and Norman MacLeod, 1985 written

communication).

Page 82: A stratigraphic-geochemical study of the Troutdale ...

Pleistocene sediments were deposited onto an uneven, eroded

Troutdale Formation surface. The oldest Pleistocene sediment is the

apron-like deposit of Cascadian gravels and mudflows of the

69

Springwater Formation and Walters Hill Formations (Trimble, 1963).

These rocks were previously included in the Troutdale Formation

(Treasher, 1942) because of their similarity to the uppermost Troutdale

Formation and deep weathered horizon.

During the remainder of the Pleistocene, the Troutdale Formation

and Sandy River Mudstone continued to be eroded in the Portland area

and several episodes of sediment deposition and removal took place

(Trimble, 1963).

Page 83: A stratigraphic-geochemical study of the Troutdale ...

CHAPTER VII

SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS

Hyaloclastic sediments that characterize the Troutdale Formation

are present in wells drilled for the Portland Water Bureau in the

Portland basin. Four separate hyaloclastic units were identified in

the well area based primarily on stratigraphic position, along with

geochemical composition and lithology. The bulk of the hyaloclastic

material is contained in the three upper hyaloclastic units (the RC,

TSA and UTSA). These three hyaloclastic units form a geochemical and

lithologic group that is correlative with both the informal upper

member Troutdale Formation of Tolan and Beeson (1984) in the Bridal

Veil channel and the type area of the Troutdale Formation along the

Sandy River. The well area RC and TSA are distingiushed by beds rich

in unweathered plagioclase and olivine-bearing sideromelane grains.

The TSA and RC units contain most of the hyaloclastic debris deposited

in the well area. The UTSA is the uppermost hyaloclastic debris­

bearing unit. It is found in the western and southernmost portion of

the well area. The UTSA is generally beds of orange-brown to grayish

cemented palagonite. The fourth hyaloclastic unit (LRC) is a

hyaloclsatic debris-bearing sandy gravel within well area sediment

equivalent to the Sandy River Mudstone and lower Troutdale Formation.

The LRC is geochemically as well as stratigraphically distinct from the

upper Troutdale Formation hyaloclastic beds.

Hyaloclastic units, defined as a diagnostic component of Tolan

Page 84: A stratigraphic-geochemical study of the Troutdale ...

71

and Beeson's (1984) upper member of the Troutdale Formation can be used

as a stratigraphic marker within the Troutdale Formation of the lower

Columbia River Gorge and the up to 1700 feet of upper Miocene and

Pliocene sediments in the Portland basin. This interval is 300 to 400

feet thick in the well area and up to 500 feet thick in the Bridal Veil

channel. The lower Troutdale Formation to upper Troutdale Formation

transition within the well area is the base of the RC-TSA-UTSA

hyaloclastic debris-bearing sediment.

The hyaloclastic beds probably formed susequent to the confluence

of high-alumina basalt lavas with an ancestral Columbia River.

Hyaloclastic debris formed during the interaction of lava flows and

river water. This elastic debris and fragments of lava were washed

downstream and deposited in the Bridal Veil canyon and the Portland

basin. The upper Troutdale Formation hyaloclastite units (the UTSA,

TSA and RC) are derived from Pliocene high-alumina basalt lavas erupted

in the Cascade Range of northern Oregon and/or southern Washington.

The LRC glass clasts from the lower member are similar geochemically to

the Simcoe Volcanics in southcentral Washington.

According to Trimble (1963) and Tolan and Beeson (1984), much of

the non-hyaloclastic sediment of the Troutdale Formation was deposited

by an ancestral Columbia River. Modern Columbia River sediments from

The Dalles to the Sandy River over-lap sediment samples from the

Troutdale Formation and Sandy River Mudstone on a Q-F-L diagram. Trace

element geochemistry and petrography show the Troutdale Formation and

Sandy River Mudstone sediment to be similar to sediments derived from

dissected magmatic arc and continental rocks. Well area sediments

Page 85: A stratigraphic-geochemical study of the Troutdale ...

72

below the TSA and RC are similar geochemically and petrographically to

Sandy River Mudstone and lower member Troutdale Formation. Sediment

from within the interval bearing TSA and RC hyaloclastic beds appears

to be more lithic-rich than the sediment cuttings below this interval

and outcrop samples of Sandy River Mudstone and lower member Troutdale

Formation. However, there may be some beds of less lithic Columbia

River sediment within the interval that contains the RC, TSA and UTSA.

Upper Troutdale Formation hyaloclastites were deposited in a

shallow basin, west of the Cascade Range, extending from the Portland

area to east of the present-day Sandy River. Hyaloclastic debris was

apparently deposited in broad fans or sheets dowstream from the

confluence of lava flows by an ancestral Columbia River. The areal

extent of this basin is probably similar to the area mapped by Trimble

(1963) as Sandy River Mudstone and Troutdale Formation.

The age of formation of the Portland basin is uncertain. Beeson

and others (1985) suggested that wrench faulting related to the

Portland Hills-Clackamas River Fault Zone, active since mid-Miocene,

formed the Portland Basin. The absence of Rhododenron Formation rocks

within the well area sediments suggests that they were deposited after

Rhododendron Formation volcanism ceased at approximately 10(?) m.y.b.p.

The LRC bed, possibly within 200 feet of the base of the post-Columbia

River basalt sediment is derived from volcanism which is uppermost

Miocene and Pliocene, suggesting that most of the Portland basin

sediment is Pliocene in age.

The rhomboidally-shaped Portland Basin, extending eastward from

the eastern base of the Tualatin Mountains and encompassing the

Page 86: A stratigraphic-geochemical study of the Troutdale ...

73

Portland and Vancouver area, was still forming after the deposition of

the upper member of the Troutdale Formation. The deformation that

resulted in approximately 400 feet of downward displacement between

sediments at Prune Hill, Washington and Blue Lake directly across the

Columbia River may be tied to Boring Lava volcanism in the Portland

area. An age range of 2.6 m.y.b.p. to 1.3 m.y.b.p. has been

established from two K-Ar age dates for this period of volcansim.

APPENDIX B

GEOCHEMICAL ANALYTICAL PROCEDURE AND

ELEMENTAL CONCENTRATION TABLES

Samples were analyzed in three experiments. Experiment 7T was

conducted in spring 1983 as part of a required project for Advanced

Geochemistry (G519). Steve Davis and Matt McClincey assisted in the

experiment. Twenty-two samples were analyzed: Thirteen sediment and

three hyaloclastite separates from Exploratory Well 1N/3E 20CB2 (number

5) along with six sediment samples collected from outcrops of the

Troutdale Formation and Sandy River Mudstone. Thirty-seven well

cutting samples were analyzed in experiment 7H in fall 1984. Twenty­

one were sediment samples and sixteen were hyaloclastite separates.

Wells sampled included 1N/2E 29DA (number 1), 1N/3E 31 CD (number 2),

1N/2E 15 CB (number 3) and 1N/3E 33AD (number 6). Sample numbers for

well samples in experiments 7T and 7H correspond to well number (1, 2,

3, 5, or 6) and sample depth from ground level in feet. Experiment 7K

was performed in spring 1985. The twenty-eight samples analyzed were

primarily field samples with a few well samples. A description of

samples and their location can be found in Appendix A.

Well sediment was wet seived to -200 mesh and dried in porcelain

dishes. Hyaloclastite glass separates were picked from cuttings or

hand sample using a jewelers tweezers under a binocular microscope.

Three to six grams of vitic clasts per sample were obtained by

selecting grains lacking weathering rinds or cemented fine grained

Page 97: A stratigraphic-geochemical study of the Troutdale ...

84

sediment attached. All vitric separates were washed in a solution of

calgonite and water in an ultrasonic cleaner and rinsed with tap water.

Whole sediment samples in experiments 7T and 7K were easily

disaggregated for splitting and weighing. Basalt samples analyzed in

experiment 7K were crushed in a steel jaw crusher. Clean unweathered

chips were then selected for analysis.

Samples were crushed in a hardened steel mortar and pestal used

only for INAA sample preparation. Samples were split down to about one

gram by halving a pile poured onto two weighing papers. Each sample

was then placed in a pre-weighed polyethelene vial for irradiation.

Sample and vial were then weighed to +or- .0002 grams to obtain the net

sample weight.

Standards BCR-1 and W-1 were used in experiment 7T. Standards

BCR-1 and PCC-1 were used in experiments 7H and 7K. Values for element

concentrations in the standards were taken from Flanagan (1976).

Samples and standards were irradiated for one hour in Reed College's

TRIGA Mark II reactor. Irradiation produces unstable radionuclides by

neutron bombardment. One of the products of decay of these unstable

isotopes is gamma radiation. Each isotope has a characteristic energy

spectrum when counted on a Ge-Li detector which in this case is

connected to Tracor Northern hardware and software. Each sample, when

counted, produces a spectum consisting of peaks that represent

individual radioisotopes. Peak intensities are relative to the

concentration of radionuclides in the sample.

The Tracor Northern software analyzes each samples spectrum to

determine the net count of each peak and the counting error as a

Page 98: A stratigraphic-geochemical study of the Troutdale ...

85

percentage by comparing the peak's shape to an ideal bell-shaped curve.

Elemental concentrations are determined for each sample by a program in

the Portland State University's main frame Honeywell computer. The

program compares net counts and percent error of peaks along with

weight and decay time for each sample to those of the standards to

calculate elemental concentrations and one standard deviation.
